…My take is there has been a loss of decorum in every aspect of human interaction.  Good in some ways, bad in these ways:  While attending a show, it’s not yours, you’re the spectator, shut up & watch the show & laugh & applaud the good stuff, …idiot. Try walking out on stage (as Stage Manager for some arbitrary run) & trying to explain to an idiot that one just doesn’t break the fourth wall by sitting on the stage before curtain time; the drama, the mystique, the magic, man, you’re encroaching on it … and it’s not alright.  Why is respect not inherent in the idiot that the folks backstage have been rehearsing 5-6 nights a week for 6+ weeks …& they’re about to make it look easy, & it’s kinda sacred? Maybe not an idiot, maybe just ignorant of the infringement? Okay; no sweat…this time. 

U seal humanity into a jar, fasten it real tight, lie to them, fleece them, in some core ways paralyze them, and call it royalty or command, call it nobility and tighten it even further. Laugh at the hoi polloi with inane or fierce eyes, telling them not to despair, it’s just the way it is, accept your lot, we all must suffer the consequences so you must suffer greater, it is your lot, and, low, you plant the seeds of dissent.  & what could have been an age of prosperity and enlightenment … knows woe…in great heaping servings…....instead. 

Mobs are a bummer from any direction they approach.  Not just when it’s Bob Roberts types forcing their blind muscle & hair-parted-just-right antagonism into a doorway to choke hope for sake of moot banners & tags. …Even when it’s righteous indignation.

But everybody has an opinion.  That’s better than six billion o them.  Gee-wiz, Wally!?
